Hollow Knight: Silksong Developers Tease Announcement on April 2

Team Cherry, the creators behind the upcoming game “Hollow Knight: Silksong“, appear to be preparing some sort of unveiling through an intricate treasure hunt. This speculation arises from recent modifications on co-creator William Pellen’s social media profiles, as reported by The Gamer, which could potentially offer clues about the studio’s future projects.

Pellen recently altered his profile name to ‘little bomey’, switched his handle to ‘@everydruidwaswr’, and updated his profile picture with an image of a chocolate cake. Additionally, he announced “something big is on the horizon” and encouraged fans to stay tuned for more updates tomorrow by keeping their eyes closed.

As a die-hard Hollow Knight fan, I couldn’t help but notice when the chocolate cake profile picture started circulating among us, sparking speculations about Silksong. So, being curious, I ran the image through a reverse search. To my surprise, it led me to a chocolate cake recipe, dated April 2, 2024. Now, this could just be a coincidence, but it’s interesting that X user Penkaru pointed out this recipe’s date aligns with the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 event, scheduled for next year. It’s got me thinking… could this be another cryptic clue from Team Cherry? Only time will tell!

Redditors on the r/Silksong subreddit have speculated that the new moniker ‘little bomey’ for Pellen might be a nod to Little Boomey Cabernet Sauvignon, a wine produced in Adelaide Hills, southern Australia – coincidentally, the same location where Team Cherry, the studio behind Silksong, is situated.

It’s important to mention that although these hints seem mysterious, there’s a possibility they could be part of an ARG (alternate reality game) designed to send players on a quest to uncover additional clues about the upcoming game, Hollow Knight: Silksong, using real-world cues. On the other hand, it might simply turn out to be a misleading trail that fans are following due to their excitement for the highly-anticipated title.

Information about the game “Hollow Knight: Silksong” has been kept fairly secretive. However, even though various rating board sites have already posted ratings for the game in 2024, and it now boasts store pages on both Xbox and the Nintendo Switch eShop, there are still many details that remain undisclosed.

As a dedicated gamer, I’ve been eagerly awaiting updates on Hollow Knight: Silksong since Team Cherry shared details back in 2021. They mentioned it was content complete and in the testing phase then. Since, there hasn’t been much news, but I can assure you it’s not stuck in development purgatory as some might speculate. In fact, I’ve had a sneak peek, and let me tell you, it’s nothing short of glorious! Patience is key, gamers, because trust me, it’ll be worth the wait.
